Does anyone own a Rivit Press for repairing Lionel Post War? I was looking on ebay and found one called the STX-150. Anyone know about this? Its not cheap and I wonder if it pays. I have done my best with a vise and center punch so far.
Thanks

I have the larger STX-350 setup that I bought from Vic. Excellent customer service and excellent product. Look at my latest restoration that I completed using his press and rivet system:

Pardner, this is my first time hearing of this contraption.
Thanks for the input on it. I must say the vise and hammer is fun for small jobs but not for a lot of repairs which I am starting to have.
